Paint was fairly oxidized, headlights faded. The roof was poorly painted so I had to wetsand the finish to restore a mirror image.



Process:



Wash

Clay

PowerGloss via PC/Yellow speed 6

PO106FF via PC/Orange speed 5

FMJ via PC/Black speed 4

Left is untouched, right side completed;

You can see that the roof`s paint is very poor;

LOL Thanks, it was a great turnout, but unfortunately couldn`t photograph it all from start to finish in the best of light. There are much better details on Autopia, but I appreciate the comment.

Fantastic work and very impressive turnaround. It looks like 106FF finished out nicely with the Orange pad??

he gave it to me the Friday evening, and picked it up Sunday evening, so I spread it out over the course of the weekend, I`d say 7-8 hours total.

Great job man, esp. on that roof! I haven`t seen a teg look like that since the artist formerly know as GSRStilez posted his up.
